Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Sheldon and Klein's outstanding manual is an update, revision, and substantial expansion of the National Consumer Law Center's 1992 guide, which targeted nonlegal counselors of consumers in financial trouble. For more than 25 years, the Boston-based center has been a court and legislative advocate for low-income consumers. This new version of their book speaks to consumers directly and offers tips on prioritizing debts, refinancing, and credit rights. Additional chapters spell out strategies regarding home foreclosure, eviction, repossession, utility shutoff, bankruptcy, etc. Seldom is such useful, authoritative information available for so small a price! David Rouse
